she does, and she says it every day on the show. She also picked us to LOSE badly on Friday on the show. Ill be calling in to make her eat crow.

I used to listen to the show all the time but it's becoming tough to do with how negative she is.

Her boy Brandon Marshall got locked down all game too. I was rolling when he caught a case of alligator arms going across the middle when he saw Ray.

As for McGahee and Rice, McGahee is still a good serviceable back and I think the coaches want to play him but he dances so much in the hole, it's embarrassing. Rice, on the other hand, either hits the hole hard or makes one cut and gets what he can.

I would take Rice easily. As much of a playmaker as Jackson is catching the ball and on returns, so is Rice.

That was my feeing as well. I was just curious what others thought. Like the experts always say you build a team form the inside out. Going into that draft we had a solid o-line so we got the QB and RB of the future. A WR would be nice but it is icing on the cake whereas a versatile RB like Rice is the cake.

Exactly. A RB like Rice is much more difficult to gameplan for than someone like Jackson. A perfect example came yesterday when Brian Dawkins had Flacco wrapped up for the sack. It was a great play by Joe to find Rice and get the ball to him but Rice still had some work to do to get positive yardage. He made a move and sped around the corner for the first down. You can't teach that.

The games in November and December are what matter and I have a feeling well be seeing more of Willis in the future, but right now Rice is hot and deserves the ball.

Side note if Ray Rice = Nice,

then:

Ray Rice (2nd year) + Joe Flacco(2nd year) + Jared Gaither (3rd year) + Michael Oher (1st year) = Very Nice Young Offensive for years to come

add to that a couple of receivers, McClain, Chester all stepping up and were good

Hopefully we can hit our stride now in Nov and Dec and close the rest of the season strong
